Jsawyer (282), Glenside, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 3, 2009 Bottle. Translucent pale gold body with a generous white, effervescent head. Aroma is predominantly bread and butter, undertones of bubblegum, apricot and citrus notes, subtle hints toward maltiness, and a floral estery finish. Flavor is bready, buttery around the sides, peppery, slightly fruity, mellow hints of orange zest permeate the light body, and generally mellifluous. Not bad at all but not my taste either for a session. Could make an interesting brew with a little more gravity. bigrond (1043), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 1, 2009 This beer was just terrible. Had it in a mixed 12 pack labeled ’all the hits’. This one is a sure miss. I’m sure the rest will be better....they couldn’t get any worse. Bccolt13 (2), USA does not count Oct 30, 2009 It was a mild, pale, light-bodied ale with low to mediumish bitterness and low hop and aroma. Liked this a lot. It was smooth and very satisfying. chriso (4665), London, Greater London, England Oct 27, 2009 Bottle, April 2008 tasting. Pale gold colour. There is a dab of citrus in the aroma and flavour but it is hidden under too much paper and cardboard. I don’t know how old this beer was but it certainly seemed a bit stale and oxidised. Which is going to be a killer in a relatively delicate beer that is supposed to be clean, straightforward and drinkable, freshness would be a key element. Not undrinkable but marked for re-rate of a fresh sample when the opportunity arises.
adavis234 (133), Columbia, South Carolina, USA Oct 17, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours an ambiguous color, mostly yellow but with some amber and brown. Aroma’s a bit fruity but not much there. Flavor is sweet but light and, like the aroma, there is not much to it. A disappointment. alobar (1001), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 11, 2009 Pours a straw yellow with a creamy white head that skims the surface of the beer. Aroma of lemon and bread. Flavor of citrus-lemon, bread, and a touch of hops. Crisp and refreshing. jport4087 (73), Pennsylvania, USA Oct 5, 2009 Out of the bottle, so I’ll just give an average appearance. Smooth malty aroma and flavor. Good not great. noncaloric (601), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Oct 4, 2009 Thanks to markwise. Clear gold, effervescent, nice white head, temporary lace. Aroma has a light malt syrup aroma, a bit of grass in the background, crisp and clean. Flavor is generally sweet and malty. First impression was extremely bready, with stale notes, but these faded after a few sips. Medium body. Fine session brew.
